nWhile the masters and elders of the major factions of the Morning Star Sea Realm battled outside of Half City, the place in front of the shop became the practice field for the disciples and young cultivators.

nThe number of young cultivators had been growing in the shop. After watching Shu Mountain and Jade Dynasty, they soon gathered in the place before the shop.

nComparatively, the Emei and Green Cloud’s technique of flying on swords had higher skill thresholds than that of Shu Mountain Faction, but the learning process was simpler than the latter.

nTo learn the sword control technique of the Shu Mountain Faction, one didn’t have to use a sword made of high-quality material. When one mastered the use of qi, even flowers, leaves, or an ordinary wooden sword could be used to cast this technique; it meant that it had a high requirement for the control of qi.

nHowever, to learn the sword control technique of Emei and Green Cloud, one must first acquire a spiritual sword with abundant spiritual essence or a better sword with a trace of spiritual properties to achieve the effect of merging oneself with the sword to achieve flight.

nTo encourage the elite disciples to master the sword control techniques, the forces had put lots of resources into it. For example, beneath Liu Ningyun’s feet was a long spiritual sword emitting pale blue crystal luster; it was made with the extremely precious deep-sea mystic jade.

nAt this moment, she flew out of the shop, and only a blue sword light could be seen; it was a celestial and elegant sight.

nThe female disciples with Mo Xian looked envious. “When can we do it as well as Junior Sister Liu?”

nShakily stepping on spiritual swords in front of the shop, they disdainfully looked at the cultivators who were still practicing the sword control technique.

nObviously, flying on the sword was much more difficult than the ordinary offensive moves of the sword control technique.

nAfter all, while holding onto their own weight, they must make sure not to fall while moving swiftly. However, attacking with the sword control technique only required one to maneuver one sword properly. The degree of difficulty of the two skills were not on the same level.

n…

n– In the Wuwei Daoist Alliance –

n“Master.” In the artifact-making room, Li Haoran stood with two middle-aged artifact masters, and they each held a platter covered by a silk handkerchief. “To imitate the Heavenly Mirror, we’ve finally chosen three precious materials for the body of this spiritual artifact.”

nHe pulled the cover on one platter and revealed a square jade box. When he opened the jade box, shiny crystal light came out. As the light faded away, a white, translucent crystal that was about the size of a grain of rice appeared.

nThen, he revealed another platter, and there was a white and smooth stone on it. At a closer look, one could see faint spiritual patterns on it; it was quite mystical.

nOn the last platter was a rectangle box; inside was a palm-sized, flat object. It looked like neither gold nor jade; it was more like it had been made from bones.

n“These boxes contain a 5,000-year-old dragon mystic crystal, a meteorite, and a bone from a prehistoric relic that has extremely good spiritual properties.”

nJun Yangzi nodded and said, “Thank you for your hard work. I’m surprised that we can only find three materials to make the imitation of the Heavenly Mirror with the power of the entire Wuwei Daoist Alliance. But this bone looks good with its abundant spiritual essence.”

n“This bone comes from Yundian Upper Realm,” Li Haoran said, “They want to join our project.”

n“What are they doing here?” Many artifact masters looked angry. “Aren’t they minions of the Three Saint Gates? Now that they saw that our Wuwei Daoist Alliance is prospering, they want to share the benefits?”

nJun Yangzi said with a smile, “Aren’t they still negotiating the compensation? Report to His Majesty and ask him to include this bone into their compensation. As for them joining our project…”

n“We can allow one of them to enter the project, and we can take this opportunity to figure out their purpose.”

n“What else could it be?” Duan Buyi said in disapproval, “Their purpose is obviously stealing knowledge from us after knowing that we started the research earlier than them.”

n“Don’t worry about that,” Jun Yangzi said, “With Mr. Fang’s shop standing there, they will catch up sooner or later despite our early start. We can take this opportunity to learn the more advanced artifact-making knowledge from the Yundian Upper Realm as well.”

n“Besides, I have a feeling that the Three Saint Gates are plotting something. Although our crisis is over, many big forces are looking at us with strange lights in their eyes,” Jun Yangzi said, “As a precaution, if we can bring Yundian Upper Realm onto our boat, that will alleviate the pressure on us.”

n“You’re right, Daoist Brother Jun Yangzi!”

n…

nBesides the Wuwei Daoist Alliance, the major forces of the Morning Star Sea Realm were also busy with the research on imitating the spiritual artifacts. The artifact masters were enjoying the peak time of their careers since they could study the super supreme treasures that had horrifying power and was made using a totally strange method under the support of most of the major forces in the Morning Star Sea Realm. They could choose materials from piles of precious items, study the structures of super supreme treasures, and try to make a horribly powerful supreme treasure that they had never imagined before; they were in the best artifact-making environment of all time.

n“Little Shop Owner, are the items in your shop really so powerful?” While controlling the joystick, Ning Bi asked doubtfully.

n“Maybe not.” Mr. Fang controlled Iori Yagami and used the desperation move, Shiki Ya Otome, while he said with a poker face, “The stuff in my shop are all garbage.”

nNing Bi said, “Big Sister just wants to know if you’re afraid that someone will try to rob the exceptional stuff in your shop?”

n“I am. Can you protect me, by the way?” Mr. Fang had just casually killed Ning Bi’s Athena with a combo; Ning Bi had never seen anyone say that they were scared with such a casual expression.

n“How can you ask me to protect you while you are not even going easy on me?”

nObviously, Mr. Fang’s way of talking put an end to the conversation. In addition, he easily killed the three characters on Ning Bi’s team, showing no mercy at all.

nMr. Fang lit up a cigarette and said, “You must be nimble and clever to play the King of Fighters. If you continue playing it this way, you won’t defeat Orochi, let alone playing the character and unlocking Orochi’s spiritual spells.”

n“We’ll continue tomorrow!” She needed a break!

nWith a wave of fragrance, she was gone.

nMr. Fang scratched his head. “Ugh? We were having a good time, right?”

n…

nMeanwhile, things continue to brew in the black mountain of the Nanhua Faction.

nA gloomy voice sounded, and hatred which had been pent up for many years oozed out of it. “Hurry up! Tell the people of the Feng Family to speed up. I’ll soon break out from this damned restriction array!”
